June 20th 2008

Today is a special day for me for two very good reasons.

First, my best friend and roommate from college, Ann, had her first baby 6 years ago today.  It’s hard to believe her daughter is SIX…wonder what we’ll say when she turns 16.  ha!  That will seem impossible I’m sure!

Second, I met my beloved Andrew this day, six years ago.  It was a fateful night in Columbia, SC.  He walked up to me and just started talking – he said he had to talk to the girl with the big blue purse….I thought he was a total weird-o, complete with two body-guards!

I’m thankful for these two blessings in my life and that they happened on the same day.

June 20th will always be a wonderful day of celebration!
